Looky here ! how surprising that the Coalition and Labor come together in order to protect the knowledge of donations and where they came from . this sort of explain why the Greens are bloody distracted right now with attacking their own party. timing is brilliant for the Gov. & Labor.

LNP and ALP get money from their corporate "donors" which is just another means of open bribery. They want to hide those donor names because getting money from "Missile Launchers R Us" isn't a good look

Surprisingly amusing summaries of the nonsense parties running for election in Vic tomorrow.

this quote did it for me

First, I can’t read the name ‘Country Party’ without thinking of the anecdote about Sir Winton Turnbull ranting about a particular adjournment and shouting “I am a Country Member” to which Gough Whitlam drily interjected “Oh, I remember.” So that just makes me giggle every time.

" The $6.7 billion project will contribute about $188 million annually in royalties to the Queensland Government during its first 25 years of operation. "

This new mine biz is supposed to happen along the proposed Adani mine in the Galilea Basin. The Adani one is still hopefully an " if it happens " thing. Now given both mines being allowed to do their thing, I don't think less than $200 million ( from one of the mine ventures)
is enough of a win for any Gov. to be spruiking as a deal winner. And given the destruction of the land, I'm not sure any mine would be willing to pay the probable billions needed to fix the health of the people or the land ...

The health of people working the mines will no doubt bring on more law suits. And that's only the beginning . The country, people, wildlife and farmed animals currently occupying the area are doomed . The water feeding them will be diverted. I know I sound like a 'greenie' here,
but seriously, this is just fucking reckless of this Gov.
